GLITCH TYPE
A broken-on-purpose display face and a 12-poster series that tests how far letters can fall apart before they stop reading.
Glitch Type started as a bug in my own export script. The slices were wrong, and wrong looked better.
Process
Each glyph is cut into horizontal bands and offset by a seeded random value. The seed is printed on every poster so any layout can be rebuilt exactly.
Output
- 94 glyphs, 3 weights
- 12 posters, A2, risograph green and black
- A web specimen with a live slider for the damage level
